Grampian or Fairchld mono cuttinghead

[venusloungerecords]

Hi, I got a chance to get one of these items. I`m torn between these 2 items, a Grampian mono cutter head or a fairchild 541a. Which one is better? in regards to sound quality. thank you

I vote Grampian.

If both are fully functional and guaranteed, Grampian hands down.

The Grampian is usually a much better sounding head.

The fairchild has a fatal flaw in the stylus screw that is very prone to failure.
